Benita Karroll

While in the music business In the mid 80’s, Karroll was interested in the concept of reducing stress and pain through Eastern medicine. She studied Oriental Medicine at Emperor’s College in Santa Monica, CA and the Tao Healing Arts Center in Venice, CA and was certified in Jin Shin Ryoho Acupressure, Swedish Massage and Shiatzu.
